Jo is proud to have been born and raised in Miami, Fl. She found her way into a yoga studio in 2011 with two goals in mind; she wanted to learn how to breathe to help reduce her anxiety and to improve her flexibility to allow her to touch her toes.

To Jo, the most compelling part of yoga is the unification of the mind and body.
She is also passionate about breaking the stigma that yoga is only for certain body shapes and that it requires pretzel shaped poses. She teaches her students that yoga is for everyone, from those looking for a physical practice to those looking to heal the mind and body. Jo’s goal will always be to help people the same way yoga helped her.
